I can confirm this happening with not just iPhone but also Android. This issue is upstream of Mobile Front end as MF doesn't serve this URL

I don't know what are you referring to with "invalid". "User Agent:" is not valid. The correct header is "User-Agent:". And the value for that header can be any arbitrary string, so there's apparently no valid/invalid value for that http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec14.html#sec14.43 Even with your suggested value for user-agent, there's no response. You can test this with any telnet client (preferably not the native telnet command of Windows, use PuTTY instead in RAW mode), connecting to www.wikipedia.org on port 80 and sending the following lines of text (with 2 empty newlines at the end): GET /wiki/ HTTP/1.1 Host: www.wikipedia.org Accept: */* User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; U; CPU like Mac OS X; en) AppleWebKit/420+ (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/3.0 Mobile/1A543a Safari/419.3
Sorry it indeed was a syntax error. When I do curl -v -H 'User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; U; CPU like Mac OS X; en) AppleWebKit/420+ (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/3.0 Mobile/1A543a Safari/419.3' http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/ I do indeed get no response By invalid I had merely hazarded a guess that the servers had not had the user agent 'iPhone' in mind but since the above user agent doesn't work either this is not it, I'm well aware they can be any arbitrary string. I should have double checked my syntax to avoid confusion on the bug thread. Sorry for that.
Can't reproduce; I get HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently.
